The impact of green human resource management on employee environmental behavior and environmental performance of hotels in Can Tho City
Abstract
This study aimed to investigate the impact of green human resource management on employee environmental behavior and hotel environmental performance in Can Tho city. One hundred and twelve employees of 3 to 5-star hotels in the city were interviewed for the study. The reliability assessment of the scale (Cronbach's Alpha), exploratory factor analysis (EFA), and structural equation modeling (SEM) were the main analytical methodologies. The results showed that green human resource management has a favorable impact on employees' ecologically friendly behavior working at the hotels. In addition, empirical evidence showed that green human resource management contributes to improving the environmental performance of hotels by reducing energy, wastes, material uses; reducing operating costs; and improving the image of the hotels.
